Nice that’s awesome. 
 

Yeah it’s no joke down there. I’ve seen a bunch of kids teen to 20 ish and the knowledge gap is heart breaking. Even young teens and single digit aged kids knowing and doing some crazy stuff just to live. Up in the middle of the night to walk to soup kitchen the safe way to be in line for when it opens then walk back to bring food home for family. But then don’t have basic understandings of soo many things even up out of the teens. Reading, normal life and family relation stuff. Just gutting. 
 Malcolm gladwell has a couple books that goes into various factors in poor areas. ( tipping point/outliers/ why I hate the Ivy League) Even for the athletic stars and brilliant minds it’s soo hard for those kids to break free. 
 

Juco, the fledgling leagues down south and the cfl have done soo much to change soo many guys lives. If any thing we need a better vacuum to pull those kids up.
I appreciate every one who works to lift those kids up get them into juco, college, Europe etc. 

 

People like to poop on football programs, and how much money their programs draw. But those programs have all saved countless kids lives and provided them escape from various hellscapes. 

My son played JUCO in Northern California. He quarterbacked his school to a California State Championship in 2012. He was working out with his private qb coach at a rival school in Oakland called Laney College. It was in a rough part of downtown Oakland. They didn't have on campus housing. Attending students had to find an apartment themselves to live. It was a dangerous area. Drug dealing, gangs, etc. The HC at Laney came on the field to talk to Tyler. I remember him saying that students there see a lot of bad things everyday in the neighbourhood around the college. There are areas of Oakland that look like a war zone.

Peralta-Laney...notorious area in Oakland...know that well...one of the worse ones

Was at a Oakland/Broncos game in Mile High, some years ago.   Far more violence in the stands, than on the field.......

Yeah, Tyler's private qb coach was former Cal Head Coach Roger Theder. He wanted both him & us out of there as the sun was beginning to set. While we were there, the cops were arresting folks on the street around the stadium everyday for 4 days. I watched 3 or 4 arrests go down. A couple were violent take downs. I was glad when that camp was over with. I kept worrying my car would be stolen or vandalized. From what I've read & seen on the news that area is even worse than it was back then. Hard to imagine it could be any worse around that campus but I guess it is. Very sad.

yeah that school basically encompasses that neighborhood...and its just crime riddled...even the scholl housing in the area is sketchy as heck....Its almost like a war zone....

FYI: literacy rates and sales of written materials (books, magazines and newspapers) have all gone down each year in the US for the past 6 years, paralleling the rise of intolerance and extremism.

I thought fans singing, "O'Shea, O'Shea, O'Shea" was pretty cool, actually. From what I saw, he seemed to enjoy that.

I don't know how much the coach enjoyed it... but it was a fun chant in Nov 2019 at portage and main

You could tell he despised it at the airport arrival thing they did that Ace Burpee hosted. I have never seen a coach who abhors the spotlight as much as him... Basically anything that takes attention away from the players, he is seemingly disgusted by it. 

Thanks to our guy @DTonOB for all the hard work that goes into producing something like this. It's a lot...

MOS is obviously a humble/modest guy but your use of the word disgusted seems too harsh and exaggerated.  I think its more of a feeling of awkwardness and unsettledness with attention. 

It's probably just how he has been wired as a human being over time.

What is it with you? If anyone here criticizes Osh you get all worked up because we're not being nice to him. Then when we are being nice & saying good things, you get all worked up again claiming he gets disgusted when people compliment him or say nice things about him. We know Osh is humble but you take it to the nth degree. Just enjoy it when we are being nice here.

Are you referring to his post-GC remarks about having earned the right to know why he didn't touch the ball more? He wasn't the only one wondering what happened.

Stanley Bryant: “Very disappointing,” veteran O-lineman Stanley Bryant said. “Surprised. Because, I mean, you’ve got the MOP, MOC. That’s what you respect. But I’m not an OC.”

11 touches, I think 0 of them came when Wilson was in at QB, none when Zach came in with 91/2 fingers. We all wanted to ask Buck what the heck happened there. I read it as he wanted to do more for his team  but wasn't able to, it was out of his hands.

Haven't been on much to see this and reply the ones that came to mind for me that I was referring to are when he was coming back early in the season and was #2 on the depth chart for a game. I don't remember what he said but I remember thinking I'd prefer if he had just kept quiet. Everybody knows he's the guy, and he's going to be the guy, but at that time no need to publicly question coaching decisions. Behind closed doors go for it, but no need to do it in the media.

I'll say this about the OB special tonight... I am really getting pumped for football in a few months. I know it's a big if, but IF the bombers can stay healthy, there's definitely some talent on this team.

It’s a given we get to the GC game every year, right?

That’s the standard that’s been set so giddy up.

Anybody listen to the OB special?

Anything interesting of note?

Haven't listened to it yet but here is the spotify link

 

It was really good. Good convos with some interesting people. Encouraged by the new OCs comments. Listening to Collaros, it's clear that the whole season, something was off. Maybe I'm reading too much between the lines but I'm very curious if something was amiss with Buck last year. 

After listening to that last night, I'm praying for health and think there's a high ceiling for this team.

The commercials were top shelf, put the Super Bowl ads to shame.
